The Legacy System

Seeming to not care about the precarious situation in front of him, Eric immediately launched his right fist towards the puppet's crotch area.

But differently from the previous times, this time he quickly retracted his right punch like a bolt of lightning, and then punched at that same place with his left punch.

The puppet seemed to have confirmed the protection of the weak spot against the right punch and using its comprehension of Eric's attitude was about to lower its guard, when the left punch hit.

Sine the cover in that specific area was about to be lowered, the left punch caught the Realm 2 puppet by surprise, and it wasn't able to fully protect itself.

Just because the protection wasn't perfect it didn't mean that it didn't exist in the least, as even though Eric's punch managed to make progress the actual progress wasn't more than 3 centimeters.

He was still unable to reach the inner part of the puppet's crotch area, and as if that wasn't enough, his left fist had been blocked by the puppet.

In fact, there was something that Eric had realized during this time, not only was the puppet extremely flexible and difficult to deal with, but it was also learning from him.

It was registering his movements, his actions, and reactions and then using them in the fight between them..

Certainly, this didn't mean that it didn't have martial skills of its own, just that it was learning a bit more trying to adapt and overcome the difficulties of the situation.

That made Eric even more surprised by this puppet, he had never thought that something like this was even possible.

All the puppets he had come across until now might have some special moves inscribed in them, but none of them was able to understand new skills.

Even as he sent the method, and the action clearly and strongly with his Soul Avatar directly onto the mark inside them, none of these puppets were able to reenact them.

It was like trying to teach English to a chicken, it had no idea what you were saying, and it lacked the brain to think about what you were trying to teach, so it was completely ignored.

No matter how many times he tried, there would always be the same answer, no movement from the puppet no matter how much he waited for it. He was totally ignored.

After trying a few times, he gave up on it and decided to not care much about that as it was already great for him to get these puppets under him.

But when he had given up already and had no thought of trying something like that in the short term, he was met with some surprising shit like that.

Sometimes no matter how much one tried to remember something, it was almost impossible to remember it, and the moment you didn't care anymore, it appeared itself magically in front.

At that moment, Eric was using his current strategy in order to determine just how much was this puppet able to learn, and how.

It was like trying to teach a small animal, or a baby from the start, as long as the baby saw it happen many times, it would slowly try to imitate.

That made Eric extremely surprised, and excited, as at the end of the day this puppet would belong to him, but at the same time, it made him feel a bit of danger, as it seemed to have captured him.

The sudden catch didn't make Eric panic though, it just made him get more serious and solemn with this fight, as he seemed to have forgotten about his hand at a moment, with his knee jumping up.

While the puppet was clearly using the material of one of its legs to defend its weak spot, Eric using his knee to hit up, and use it to kick its weak spot from below.

As he saw it there were two choices for the puppet, either released his hand and protected itself or let his kick connect and suffer.

Eric had no idea how much damage his kick would actually cause, but he was clear about one thing, the puppet was bound to feel it if it did connect.

Noticing the new predicament, the puppet didn't seem to dare on blocking his left hand anymore, as the material of its leg turned into a lower cover for his knee kick.

While that was a good outcome for Eric who seemed to be detained a moment ago, a hue of regret appeared on his face.

He wasn't that worried about his hand at that moment, as what he wanted to know was just what would happen once his kick connected.

He was extremely curious about what was in that part of the body of the puppet, and just what was the puppet trying to protect so strongly, and how it would react.

His curiosity had been peaked at that moment, and he wanted to know as soon as possible what was going, and what would happen.

Still, just because that attack didn't work, it didn't mean that he was going to give up. Some transparent droplets of sweat started appearing on his forehead, and all his body, but he didn't care.

If this puppet didn't make him even break a sweat, then this thing would be a great disappointment for him.

What he didn't know though, was probably that if that creator of this puppet in front of him were to see the current show, he wouldn't know whether he should laugh or cry.

His puppet was showing extremely good results, which would make any puppet maker of that level feel extremely inferior in front of it.

Don't look at Eric's perverted existence that was able to make this puppet look like a small child being bullied.

Just Eric's physical strength had already surpassed the 1st Realm, and was beyond the normal 2nd Realm, not to mention when that strength was accompanied by his skin sturdiness and stats.

As someone who had been tempered with the blood of a true dragon, Eric's body had undergone huge changes, as in fact he had surpassed the Second level of Body Refinement.

It wasn't that difficult to do so in the past, or in the big powers, as long as they used some special herbs, and medicines, but for Eric it was different.

His body was stronger than others from the moment that he gained the 'Pure Jade Body' and it was more and more difficult for him to temper his body through normal means.

Even more so now that his body had been tempered with human blood, and even though his skin wasn't as tough as the Dragon's scales it was sturdy enough to break a kitchen knife's sharp blade.

Despite that, his knuckles had been injured and there were traces of blood in there, clearly demonstrating the puppet's toughness and sturdiness.

Yet Eric seemed to be just accepting the puppet's strength, and not giving the thing a high estimation. Most probably the creator would spurt a mouthful of blood and pass out.

Eric didn't care about that right now though, as his intention was fully focused on the Realm 2 puppet.

The moment that his knee kick made the puppet jump a bit, he made a turn midair, and his left foot kick connected on the puppet's covered crotch area, sending it flying away.

At this moment his breathing was a bit rough, and his heart was beating faster, but he still managed to land on his feet while waiting for the puppet's retaliation.

His expression was serious and solemn, but the puppet didn't come running for its revenge, quite on the contrary it stood there on the ground, and suddenly that white shadow appeared once again,

"Congratulations on winning the inheritance of the Nightless Stone City!

Our last wishes and thoughts remain in your hands' inheritor!"

With that, he seemed to shatter in countless lights which then found their way towards Eric's conscience sea containing a special manual called "Puppet Mechanics".

In fact, Eric's kick had been strong enough to send the puppet beyond the boundaries of the arena and make the match his win by default which clearly made him discontent.

He was having so much fun fighting with the Realm 2 puppet despite looking extremely tired, he wanted to make sure to reach his goal before he subdued the puppet.

Who would have thought that he would win the fight by such a stupid trick? A trick that he hadn't even thought of using.

Damn!

He couldn't help but feel a bit reluctant to accept such a win, as he wanted to continue from where they left off, but before that, he had to take a look at the new skill.

In fact, the 'Puppet Mechanics' seemed to be just a watered version of the skill he received from his Legacy System's shop, but at the same time, there were a few unique views.

It was clear that the manual or the skill he bought from the shop was more advanced than this one, but at the same time this 'Puppet Mechanics' had a passage not contained on that manual or skill.

The 'Life Puppet' and the 'Corpse Puppet'. The names were already self-explanatory, and made Eric quite surprised and thrilled, as he would have to carefully learn them later.

Besides that, manual there were also the memories of that middle-aged man, and a few others, which might help Eric learn the manual better, and faster.

But Eric didn't care much about those, as he already had the Legacy System to help with that stuff, and it provided a much better reference.

As he couldn't help but laugh out loud in satisfaction of having accomplished his mission…
